.... the little green LED that flashes on my T68i.

Her disapproval is especially evident come bed-time.
"Why is that thing flashing again??!
Me, wearily and for the 10th time, "Well, it shows the phone is working, amongst other things, and anyway, I like my gear to have flashing lights and shit."

But she still complains, even with her eyes closed and her back turned on me... dont know what would happen if i dared try and turn on the Bluetooth.
But I refuse to give in and just stick it on the floor, turn it on its face, or turn it off , take out the battery and stick it in a shoebox....
I have my principals!


I think lots of you must suffer similar gripes.

You should charge it. The light stays on then.

The flashing green and blue lights from the t68i have to be the best aesthetic feature on a phone ever.

I must admit, I wanted to do terrible things to my t68i when it was charging and both the LEDs were on constantly...

Happy days.

You should turn your bluetooth on as well. The harmonious 2 blinking lights may overpower the imbalance irritation cause by a single blinking light...

i think you should toggle the service menu, select the LED/illumination option, the red, green and blu blinking coupled with the keypad and LCD lights would surely bring forth good karma....

Yes, as crowing has pointed out, the only way to sleep peacefully is to turn on the LED test, it is very harmonious.

Gentlemen, (Im chauvinistically assuming you all are) these are all excellent suggestions, especially the LED/display test one.

She is not one to appreciate the "white heat of technology" but she eventually comes round... for instance, I've spied her fiddling with my Xbox, and even my scanner radio on one occasion, so all hope is not lost...

Although my wife is something of a technophobe, she does appreciate what my gadgets can do, but doesn't really care how they do it. Her only peeve is the time i spend with them.:-)

Get the divorce papers ready and then one night go into the service menu and switch on LED illumination.
